I haven't had any real time to prepare a post for today, as I always post on Wednesdays. Ugh! I moved last weekend and have been getting a new job under my belt (of which is going splendidly). *grins*
Well, as I said, I moved to Salt Lake City, Utah. I never thought I would live in this neck of the woods, but alas, I am here. Very exciting, indeed. And I am through with a long commute to work, now. Yes! No more griping Julia at the wheel. *grumble grumble* Not a good combination, especially if I'm tired and heaven forbid hungry. Plus, I will be saving a bunch of money from the gas tank.
Here are some pics of the move:
Before...
My crap made it upstairs at my old pad...
After... at my new place... My poor books haven't found a home yet. :(
Anyway, this is the third, count it, the third time I've moved in 10 months. Crazy-town for sure. Thus be the transiant life. I'd love to settle down into a permanant dwelling. Perhaps, I will do that sometime soon.
Anyway, what is the most times you've moved in a short period of time? Do you like moving? Detest it? Do you use movers or family/friend muscle (and your own too)?
Thanks for stopping by, folks! Have a great week until I see you again. Ciao!
Writing. Jewels.
I hate moving and did so recently. But the most I've moved in one year was 6 times. Hated it :-D
ReplyDelete6 times. Ack! That's crazy.
DeleteI'm usually only once a year if I'm moving. (Different apartments every year in college. Plus bad roommates so I moved a couple weeks into my first semesters of undergrad and grad school.) Someday, I'll be able to hire movers but for now it's my own muscle when moving. (Mostly. Sometimes I do need help.) Though when I moved to and from Denver, we hired people to unload (moving to) and load (moving from) the uhaul trailer. On the other end, it was all me, though.
ReplyDeleteI have moved so many times by choice I probably have left a suspicious trail. lol I have been to Utah but haven't had occasion to live there. I have often heard it is controlled by a certain majority, thus I've also no plans to move there. I value my freedom, independence, and the whims I get when I feel like moving to another city or another country.
ReplyDeleteCheers and much success in your new endeavor.
I'm glad you're getting settled in! :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the move. Other than moving around a bit in college I haven't moved much. If we had to move now with two kids and a houseful of their junk we'd definitely hire someone. Of course the only reason we would be moving is a new job and they would have to include movers in the hiring package for us to be willing, so, it would be taken care of.
ReplyDeleteGlad you have a short commute now! As a kid we moved a lot, but we were always in once place for a couple years before moving again.
ReplyDeleteLove/hate it. It's so nice to purge, which I always do when I move. I feel lighter, fresher, and have the excitement of a new start. But it's also a huge pain and a lot of work. I also don't feel settled in my brain until I'm settled in my home. Best wishes, Julia!
ReplyDeleteArgh, moving. Three times and ten months is a lot of work, my dear. Hang in there!
